Summary

Beneath the chandeliers of the gilded ballroom in Veridia, where florists craft bouquets of midnight roses and shadowed dukes prowl with secrets etched in velvet, artisan Lila captivates Duke Harlan, a noble haunted by a lineage of cursed thorns. Their forbidden dance, spun in petal vows and shadowed steps, ignites a scandal that could wilt the court's fragile alliances or cultivate a garden of redemption. As they steal moments in hidden arbors and rose-laced alcoves, stalked by gossip weavers and thorned rivals, Lila's floral alchemy blends with Harlan's ducal enigma, revealing a midnight rose prophecy of thornless union. When a poisoned petal unleashes spectral blooms, they must waltz through the shadows to prune the curse. In the twirl of crimson petals, where every thorn pricks with desire and every waltz echoes forbidden longing, their romance becomes the bloom that defies the night's decree.
